Greater Than Games MetaGame contest

General GTG General Discussion

Hey Guys,

I am super excited to see what other people will do for the Metagame contest currently going on.  I had a whole bunch of ideas, but I have been runing with one in particular.

Some questions:

1) Assuming we *don't* get picked, we still own our game, right?  I may want to try other means to get it published.

2) Art: Do you expect us to provide the art?  My game is a playable prototype and has all needed to play, but it has no art.  Would someone from GTG be doing that if accepted?  Or should I be contracting someone?  (Like you said, the more done, the better). [How expensive are artists?] 

3) Any thoughts on when the "winners" would be announced?

Thanks in advance!

 

  Gooday,

  Richie

I know your first question got answered on Twitter when another person asked. https://twitter.com/seesome/status/682571793631186944

Art is definitely not expected, and we don't yet have a timeline for announcing the winner; it'll depend on how many entries we get. 

And yes, as PowerHound said, you definitely own the rights to your work.

It's a couple hours before the deadline and I just submitted my entry to the "[Game Mechanic}: the [Game Mechanic] Game" contest.  I've done playtesting before and written LARPs before, but this is the first boardgame I've created.  Pretty cool, even if my entry isn't selected.
